To be honest, I never understood this "voice actors are

>>92837567
Words in the script are just that, words.

Voice actors are the ones that execute those words and make them come to life.

Tara is a qt though

>Go back and replace all the voices in Batman, Avatar and any other series people like, and recast everyone with one guy who does a whiny old man jewish stereotype voice

"Guys, only the writers and art designers are important, voice actors aren't important and their reputation for certain characters doesn't matter"

>Replace Phil Lamar in Samurai Jack with no chemistry or insight into the character some guy doing Porky Pig

"Totally doesn't matter guys, this is fine"

>Just go up to established voice actors known for fan favorite characters that actually have to act the character and give it life, and just call them not important and they don't get to have any ownership over the role they play

you are this retarded

However, I really wish Tara Strong would stop holding Harley Quinn hostage like she's the only person who can ever play her anymore

it's a group effort, but the acting part is usually the most important aspect which is why it's focused on a lot by viewers. These people are the ones that are putting themselves in front of a camera or mic to say the words that were written in a way that reflects what the character was designed to be like.

well people has different visions and opinions about everything.
I don`t understand people who say that Downey Jr. is Ironman or Jackman is Logan and if they change the actor they would not go see the next movie.
For me is like when you change the writer and pencil in a comic, is not the end of the character.

literally exactly my thoughts. if anything it just adds to the fidelity lol. Especially if the next Wolvie isn't such a faggot about actually playing Wolverine.

So if you married the voice actress who played your waifu, you wouldn't care that she was a complete psycho who didn't share any real life personality traits with them?

You... just contradicted your entire statement of claiming voice actors were unreplaceable.

You're right in one way OP, VAs are not the characters and the worship of them as if they truly were the characters is silly

But on the otherhand, you can't dismiss or undercut the importance of voice actors either, they are as important as anything else when it comes to cartoons, cartoons and characters can be ruined by awful voice acting

All the guys who replaced Mel Blanc just aren't the same, they don't understand all the nuances of the characters or the classic radio/theater/movie stuff Mel drew his characters' personas and vocal tics from.

Oftentimes the voice actor may give more life to the character than the script. Hades from Hercules was original a dark, brooding type until James Woods came in & auditioned his way. The directors enjoyed a fast-talking deadpan Hades & now he's one of the greatest Disney Villains.

>Retards completely missing the point of the thread

OP never ONCE claimed voice actors weren't an important part of the cartoons themselves. He pointed out that voice actors are SEPARATE PEOPLE from their characters who don't necessarily have anything in common with them.

I've been on 4chan for months now, so I should be used to this kind of ignorance by now.

>>92837567
It's just crazed fanboys who do that. Most people are well aware cartoon characters aren't real.
